Van Ryt Industries (VRI) is a custom timber playground equipment manufacturer based in O’Connor Western Australia. Ben, the Managing Director, founded VRI nearly 8 years ago with the company now being 10 strong. Along with our passion for the construction of exciting playgrounds, is recognising the importance of men’s mental health in and out of the workplace. We want to raise awareness within the construction industry that it’s okay to speak to a mate, to seek help and that you are not alone. The Goal: Van Ryt Industries plans to leave from our factory here in O’Connor and ride 215kms over 2 days to the finish point of Busselton Jetty. The plan along the way is to get the word out there, and encourage people to check in with one another because no-one knows how big of an impact this might have on someone's life.
